Credit Rating

Sep 25, 2010 20:12

I ended up signing up for a monthly credit monitoring system with freecreditreport.com. I was gonna cancel my account so I wouldn't get charged, but the lady on the phone sold me a 50% off discount, so it's $7 something dollars a month and I'm sucker so I went for it.

I checked the statutes of limitations a couple of days after I posted this, and found that the statute of limitations in Utah is...actually I forgot, but it's after I graduate. New York is similar. I wonder if they keep up with my employment status. Otherwise, I don't know how else they'll find out about me, and they haven't contacted me at all since I stopped paying. I wonder if they just ruled me out as a lost cause.

My friend and her mom are constantly being hassled by a law firm that represents a collection agency of her student loans. They are scummy. My friend wrote a cease and desist letter 'cause they were bothering her mom at her office. Her mom lives in SC, and under the state law, she's very well protected. They can't garnish her wages. She's also getting social security, but under federal law, they can't garnish that either. My friend, on the other hand, is worried about herself. But she never signed anything and didn't know anything about the loan 'cause her mom did all the paperwork, so she's thinking of using that as an excuse so she won't have to pay. I don't know what will happen to her mom, though, if she does that because she probably signed for her, which means she could be charged for falsifying her signature.

When I was still delusional, I made my entries public because I thought I had nothing to hide since my controllers knew everything. I should start making my entries friends-only again.
